i use this font system wide, forced as the only font in firefox, with web or downloadable fonts disabled. i also have my some of my own characters in csur, the conscript unicode registry, that is mapped to u+e000 thru u+f8ff so the unicode

unifont has cjk support, bitmap fonts work just fine for the integer domain. been using unifont system and app wide for some integer number of years now. i believe the only app that i use that does not have unifont is the game rimworld, but

i use i3wm so there are various keybindings you can use. for mouseless stuff i use xdotool to move the pointer in 16 or 64 pixel increments using the keyboard. if i could toggle the mouse pointer on and off i would.

i agree, that is a problem, mainline linux and working drm, that is direct rendering manager, drivers should exist before release of the product.

well, if the soc is the same, thus same cpu, gpu, and npu, kernel and userspace support should be also roughly equal, tho the device tree will differ between the two devices. i do agree that many of these sbc computers have poor initial sup

$150-$180 seems expensive for 4gb ram and 16gb flash when you can get an sbc with the same soc, the sipeed licheepi 4a with 16gb of ram and 128gb flash for $180, or $120 for 8gb ram and 8gb flash, or $135 for 8gb ram and 32gb flash

this is why I have downloadable or website fonts disabled and in browser, use a singular monospace bitmap font, unifont, and across the entire system. you can do this with your preferred font. also eliminates any risk of security due to fon

some of the cm4 variants do have flash memory, 8, 16 and 32gb mmc flash, but those are just as hard to obtain as standard raspberry pis. you use the raspberry pi io board or any of the third party ones to connect the cm4.

my solution to beat the tab accumulation problem is to have firefox simply close all tabs, clear browsing and download history, clear form and search history, and clear cache upon the user choosing to close the program. if the browser or co

Khadas Edge2 Pro has 16GB of RAM, $340 tho, available now, even from amazon. Radxa ROCK 5B also has 16GB of RAM, $220, available via ameridroid. Jetson Orin NX 16GB has 16GB of RAM, $600, available in Dec, would probably also require a carr

note that you can replace the mouse in X using xdotool to do mouse pointer movements and mouse clicks if your window manager, such as i3, supports it. specifically you are looking for xdotool mousemove_relative. movement is in integer amoun

sorry for the late reply, also forgot to mention that I use a fontconfig file, .xresources, other config files for i3 (the tiling wm), termimal (xst) and vim that specify the unifont font specifically. here are a few images showing the setu

I actually use a slightly modified unifont exclusively on a linux system, deleted all other fonts, disabled browser font downloading, and use firefox to get proper rendering. If you use a tiling wm, without borders or spaces between windows

on linux I installed unifont, a singular bitmap font of size 8x16, that covers most of unicode, moved all other fonts, modified fontconfig to use only that font, disabled bold and italics, switched from chrome to firefox, changed about:conf
